The preparation of thick-film glass capillary columns

A detailed method for the routine preparation of glass capillary columns is presented. The method consists of coating a glass tube with quartz powder prior to pulling the tube into a capillary. The inner surface of the capillary consists of an even distribution of quartz particles fused to the walls. This surface has been found readily deactivated by standard procedures and ideal for the preparation of thick-film glass capillary columns. The method has been thoroughly tested in two independent laboratories to ensure that the procedures described are reproducible.     

Tensor products of coherent configurations

A Cartesian decomposition of a coherent configuration ✗ is defined as a special set of its parabolics that form a Cartesian decomposition of the underlying set. It turns out that every tensor decomposition of ✗ comes from a certain Cartesian decomposition. It is proved that if the coherent configuration ✗ is thick, then there is a unique maximal Cartesian decomposition of ✗; i.e., there is exactly one internal tensor decomposition of ✗ into indecomposable components. In particular, this implies an analog of the Krull–Schmidt theorem for the thick coherent configurations. A polynomial-time algorithm for finding the maximal Cartesian decomposition of a thick coherent configuration is constructed.     

Batalin–Vilkovisky algebra structures on Hochschild cohomology of generalized Weyl algebras

We devote to the calculation of Batalin–Vilkovisky algebra structures on the Hochschild cohomology of skew Calabi–Yau generalized Weyl algebras. We first establish a Van den Bergh duality at the level of complex. Then based on the results of Solotar et al., we apply Kowalzig and Krähmer's method to the Hochschild homology of generalized Weyl algebras, and translate the homological information into cohomological one by virtue of the Van den Bergh duality, obtaining the desired Batalin–Vilkovisky algebra structures. Finally, we apply our results to quantum weighted projective lines and Podleś quantum spheres, and the Batalin–Vilkovisky algebra structures for them are described completely.     

Some Estimates for $θ$-Type Calderόn–Zygmund Operators and Linear Commutators on Certain Weighted Amalgam Spaces

In this paper, we first introduce some new kinds of weighted amalgam spaces. Then we discuss the strong type and weak type estimates for a class of Calderόn–Zygmund type operators $T_θ$ in these new weighted spaces. Furthermore, the strong type estimate and endpoint estimate of linear commutators $[b, T_θ]$ formed by $b$ and $T_θ$ are established. Also we study related problems about two-weight, weak type inequalities for $T_θ$ and $[b, T_θ]$ in the weighted amalgam spaces and give some results.     

Regularity of Viscosity Solutions of the Biased Infinity Laplacian Equation

In this paper, we are interested in the regularity estimates of the nonnegative viscosity super solution of the $β$−biased infinity Laplacian equation $$∆^β_∞u = 0,$$ where $β ∈ \mathbb{R}$ is a fixed constant and $∆^β_∞u := ∆^N_∞u + β|Du|,$ which arises from the random game named biased tug-of-war. By studying directly the $β$−biased infinity Laplacian equation, we construct the appropriate exponential cones as barrier functions to establish a key estimate. Based on this estimate, we obtain the Harnack inequality, Hopf boundary point lemma, Lipschitz estimate and the Liouville property etc.     

Monge-Ampère Equation with Bounded Periodic Data

We consider the Monge-Ampère equation det $(D^2u) = f$ in $\mathbb{R}^n,$ where $f$ is a positive bounded periodic function. We prove that $u$ must be the sum of a quadratic polynomial and a periodic function. For $f ≡ 1,$ this is the classic result by Jörgens, Calabi and Pogorelov. For $f ∈ C^α,$ this was proved by Caffarelli and the first named author.     

Upper bound of Kähler angles on the β-symplectic critical surfaces

Let (M,g) be a Kähler surface and \mathrm{\Sigma } be a \beta-symplectic critical surface in M. If L_q\left(\mathrm{\Sigma }\right) is bounded for some q>3, then we give a uniform upper bound for the Kähler angle on \mathrm{\Sigma }. This bound only depends on M,q,\beta and the L_q functional of \mathrm{\Sigma }. For q>4, this estimate is known and we extend the scope of q.     

Reaction of 3,3-dichloropentane-2,4-dione with aromatic aldehydes under the conditions of Darzens reaction

3,3-Dichloropentane-2,4-dione reacts with aromatic aldehydes under the conditions of Darzens reaction to give 4-acetoxy-4-aryl-3,3-dichlorobutan-2-ones, the products of insertion into the -C-C bond. The reaction of ethyl dichloroacetylacetate with benzaldehyde yields a derivative of tricyclo[5.1.0.0^3,5]octane, rather than 2,6-bis(1-chlorobenzylidene)cyclohexane-1,4-dione, as the by-product.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Adsorption studies of organosubstituted laminated silicates

The hysteresis of sorptive deformation of sorbents has been studied for the first time. Based on the results obtained, it is assumed that the deformation of sorbents could be the universal reason for the sorptive hysteresis.For Part 1, see Ref. 1.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Carbocyclic and nitrogen-containing fused CH-acids with an annelated indenyl fragment. Thermogravimetric and X-ray structural analysis of 6H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoline

Based on thermogravimetric characteristics first obtained for the model 6H-indeno [1,2-b]quinoline, the scheme of thermal conversions of this compound in the temperature range 20–700 °C has been proposed, and the limit of its thermal stability (300 °C) has been determined. This temperature is recommended as the optimum for synthesizing fused benzoaza(diaza)fluorenes. Based on the results of X-ray structural analysis, the molecules of the studied indenoquinoline form centrosymmetric pairs, which are arranged in (110) layers. The molecules are orientationally disordered. The observed self-association of these molecules is similar to the - association of fused heterocyclic systems with-excessive and ****- deficient fragments. It has been suggested that interferon-inducing and antitumor compounds with an annelated indenyl fragment have a common mechanism of action according to the intercalation model of stacking structures.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
